Security Bulletin


Summary

A potential security vulnerability in CPUs may allow information disclosure.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2018-12126
Description: Intel Microprocessor could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) vulnerability that stores buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a side-channel attack to obtain data that is being processed in the CPU by other apps. Note: This is called the Zombieload attack.
CVSS Base Score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/160990 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score: *Undefined
CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N

CVEID: CVE-2018-12127
Description: Intel Microprocessor could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) vulnerability that fills buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a side-channel attack to obtain data that is being processed in the CPU by other apps. Note: This is called the Zombieload attack.
CVSS Base Score: 6.5

CVEID: CVE-2019-11091
Description: Intel Microprocessor could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM) vulnerability that allows uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a side-channel attack to obtain data that is being processed in the CPU by other apps. Note: This is called the Zombieload attack.
CVSS Base Score: 3.8
